    Kinda random but I grew up watching these flick trips on a crappy laptop when I was a kid still stealing my neighbors internet just to be able to watch them (2011/2012 maybe?) and now I’m 19 coming back to catch up on these 😂

      I’d say mid 20s your an adult

    I prefer the comfort of the room or wherever rather than green screen too. Disingenuous is not a bad adjective for it. Physical media or posters or what have you is a much more interesting stage, so to speak.

    I'm currently in the middle of moving house, so I completely get that "bogged down by your possessions" feeling. I have a 1000+ DVD/Bluray collection which I spent two entire days building shelves for, moving it to, and organizing it in the new house. And while I haven't gotten rid of any of them yet, the experience did make me realize how many of those I never watch and how many I've never even opened. I think there is going to be a culling in my future.

    The best thing is to have a curated collection of your favorite movies. A lot of people regret their collection when they realized it's bloated with a bunch of stuff just for the sake of owning stuff. I've been collecting for 20 years and I think I just cross over the 700 mark. Having said that, out of the 700, only about 150 are out in display. The rest I actually kept the discs and artwork and ditched the plastic cases. This allowed me to consolidate all those movies to 1 small bin

If I like it, I'll keep it until I can replace it on Blu-Ray and if I don't like it, I'll just sell it somewhere else. That said, I did just buy 7 DVDs from Goodwill.

    Speaking of Batman , i always consider it to be more like Catman. It resembels more like a cat ears , maybe similar to Black Panther.
    The suit is a combination of Black panther , Suit from Crysis and Iron Man .
    The Mask Vigilante is a thing that every superhero has basically .
    If I was the original creator of Batman , i wold have make an army of Bat drones that Batman has to help him. Same thing with Spiderman , a fleet of spider drones. Something cool.
    P.S.: i would loved to see a TV series with War Machine , maybe with a War Machine Mech. Something to blow out mind.
    When we are kids we imagine far more cool scenarios.

      @GortonIma 3 роки тому

      A lot of Blus they only pay a penny for now. I used to go about every 6 months and would take 30ish Blus each time. It'd be a bit of a pain but I'd walk away with just north or south of £100 each time. Last time I went it was only just over £50. I commented that it was a lot less than usual and they said that they stopped paying much for films because of streaming. £50 wasn't bad but more than half the films only sold for a penny and I only really got a notable amount for the few 4Ks I sold. It's put me off going back because if I take the wrong films I might not even make enough to pay for parking! It's also messed with my whole buying approach because I used to buy knowing I could sell films I didn't like or grew tired of and reinvest but that option doesn't feel like it's there now, unless I want to take on a second job of selling discs on Ebay.

Anyways, long story short, they had a flood and they all got wet. The insurance company gave me money to replace them all, all at original or current-equivalent value!! I had kung-fu movies I bought for $1, and I found other versions of the same movie on amazon for like $90! Even regular old movies, were often still selling for $15-$30 brand new. Got a check for like $10,000 for that garbage! Miss my Robocop Criterian collection tho. . .
